Greatworth Green Tunnel

Our approach is grounded in the belief that infrastructure should work in concert with its setting. At Greatworth, this principle is expressed through a gently modelled landscape that conceals the tunnel structure and re‑establishes farmland, habitats, and public rights‑of‑way above the railway. The design prioritises simplicity and legibility, allowing the reinstated topography and planting strategy to take precedence over the engineering beneath.

Working in close collaboration with EKFB and our design partners ASC, we developed a solution that balances technical performance with environmental sensitivity. The tunnel’s geometry is efficient and robust, yet its presence is softened by the reinstated hedgerows, woodland edges, and species‑rich grasslands that reconnect ecological corridors and enhance biodiversity.

Greatworth Green Tunnel reflects our ongoing commitment to infrastructure that is both purposeful and considerate - a project where engineering is integrated quietly into the landscape, and where long‑term environmental value is placed at the forefront of design.
